Next Manager Speculation and wishful thinking thread

[curiousorange]

Can we please not have a 'project' manager, please? I'm already a little frustrated by having mega rich owners and having to scour leagues for the next big thing rather than being allowed to just buy players who are actually good. Get a winner in.

Valverde would be a coup, but not sure how quickly he would adapt.

Thanks SHQ.  Sounds interesting.

See if we had changed after Arsenal I would fancy some of the shouts but we are now two further (points-less) games into the mire now so I wonder do we need to think of survival instead of the future? They have been too loyal to Dean, really.

Only worry is Palace interviewed him in the summer and not sure they felt he'd be right fit for them given he's in his 60s now so potential to be another Houllier if he's lost a bit of motivation.

In terms of generally coaching at top level in last decade he's one of the top candidates out there.

yep, if they bin him I don't want another hopeful punt.

I loved Smith and wanted him to be ‘the one’
Please go out and get someone brilliant.

There are 27 games left not 7

Yes, but my point is, the longer we leave it the more of a gamble it is.

I get that mate but it’s two games post Arsenal. It’s hardly a lost cause. It’s no where near

It’s 5 straight defeats and and abysmal record stretching into last season. He has proven with more than enough evidence that outside of a few bright spots he cannot win without Jack Grealish. He’s simply not good enough at this level.

Agree

Jack carried us

[TonyD]

Tuchel is quality and the real deal.

He ouses confidence.

[cdbearsfan]

Not sure we'd get him.

If we attract a top class candidate, you have to wonder about their reaction to our recruitment policy. I am guessing most of them will have some players in mind who they want pdq, regardless of youth and resale value.
